Birmingham Airport Car Park 5 (formerly Long Stay 1) reviews

Here are some comments that our customers have made about Birmingham Airport Car Park 5 (formerly Long Stay 1)

"Easily accessed by following clear signage. Courtesy busses were regular, but trying to get on with cases and children is a nightmare. Some passengers block aisles and doorways as there's not enough storage space- given nearly each passenger gas a suitcase and often large hand luggage. Anyone with a baby buggy really has to rely on the good will of others to help out.
Although the correspondence is good and access/release is swift the price is expensive as we have to pay for 9 days for a 7 day holiday.
I understand it was nearly 1 in the morning when we got our bus, but the driver was really grumpy and uncommunicative, 3 kids and a husband like that is already enough to deal with!"

"Parked ok. Within walking distance to terminal. Got the bus back which was quick and easy although the first bus had broken down and we had to wait for a replacement. When I put my ticket in to exit the car park it wanted £182.00 parking charges. So I had to call the office up. They just let me out, without a question so that was a relief!"

"Having pre - paid to park, the camera failed to recognise my number plate on entry. So having contacted the person on duty and giving my details he acknowledged that he had a record of the same and I was admitted by taking a ticket from the machine at the barrier. On leaving the car park the inserted ticket resulted in a demand for approx £135.00. When I eventually got an answer from whoever was on duty, with several other drivers queuing behind me, he again acknowledged that he had my details and allowed me to exit.

Simply put your computer system is rubbish - time to update or replace it."

"Once again, using airport parking, we were unable to be identified by number plate recognition both on entering and leaving the car park, which was rather frustrating. Booked and paid online and number plate entered correctly. However, 'help button' customer service assistant was helpful and rectified the situation both times. Bus service to and from car park excellent and frequent. Plenty of spaces and only a short walk to bus stop."

"The car parking it's self was fantastic, car was secure for the whole week. Bus trip getting to the airport terminal was fine, but the one coming back (6.30am) the driver was falling asleep at the wheel, very scary."

"Car park 5 facilities were good at Birmingham airport. However the signage for the frequency of buses say that they arrive every 10 minutes in large writing. Having waited 15 minutes with no bus I rang the number provided. The operator informed me that the buses come every 20 minutes. My suggestion would be to alter the signage to reflect that or indeed have the buses come every 10 minutes. Thank you."

"The number plate recognition failed to work on entry or on exit, although when we contacted the help centre the barrier was lifted for us. We were surprised at the distance of the car park from the Airport, but the shuttle bus avoided the walk. We seemed to have been waiting longer than the advertised 10 minutes, but I could not be sure. On return, the car was where we left it and it was undamaged."
